Michelle talks about a note on The Atlantic called, “Tell Us: When Did You Become an Adult?” and an article in The New York Times about delayed adulthood.
Michelle Van Loon’s writing life started when her mom taught her to read before she started kindergarten. Since then, she has authored a book exploring the topic of regret, two books about the parables of Jesus and has contributed to three devotional projects and two devotional Bibles. She is a regular contributor to Christianity Today’s popular Her.meneutics blog, and also maintains her own blog at Patheos.com. In addition to her own writing projects, she has also guided two books through significant revision on their road to self-publication. Michelle and her husband Bill have three children and live in the Chicago suburbs.
Michelle’s latest book is If Only: Letting Go of Regret (Beacon Hill Press, 2014). Visit Michelle’s website to learn more about her and her published works.
